Chris Brown had his probation revoked because of new assault charges filed in Washington D.C., according to TMZ.

Brown went to court Monday for a progress hearing, where the judge decided the criminal complaint filed in October was enough to convince him that Brown is not obeying all laws while on probation, which is a requirement.

Uh … aren’t we all supposed to obey laws, whether we’re on probation or not?

Anyway, Brown got lucky, as the judge didn’t remand him into custody. The judge was apparently impressed by Brown’s progress in anger management rehab. Brown hasn’t, like, punched any women or anything since he started the 90-day rehab last month. But there will be a hearing in February to check on Brown’s progress.

According to TMZ, the judge also told Brown he can’t use medical marijuana while in rehab.

Brown got in trouble back in October for alleged felony assault — later reduced to a misdemeanor — for a scuffle he got into outside a New York bar. The Los Angeles County Probation Department launched an investigation.

The clinical team apparently reported Brown has made progress and has new psychotropic drugs that seem to be working. He’s been taken off medical marijuana. The team says his ability to “emotionally regulate himself” has markedly improved.
